TODD’S TECH TUESDAY: Terrific tutorials to try

I cannot wait to try today’s idea in the classroom. Student tutorials go into our “why didn’t I think of this” file!

Kim Cofino of always learning has a great blog and a wealth of tech-related ideas. You have to check out her post on video student tutorials. Although, Kim shares that this isn’t her original idea, her explanation of her lesson and her tips for creating tutorials are just top-notch. In other words, she takes the idea to another level.

We love the idea of having kids create these on their individual interests or having students “tutor” one another on challenging concepts. They are also fantastic potential homework and summer-break tools to keep kids learning. In the same classroom, you could have some kids using tutorials and others making them- so much potential for personalizing.
